Question Cool places for senior/car pics - west of DFW Airport - 08-19-2010, 07:41 PM


Need suggestions on some cool/edgy places to shoot my son and his Mustang for his senior pictures. Would prefer something on my side of town if possible (west of DFW Airport).

My first thought would be Texas Motor Speedway. Never been but a perfect place for shooting his pony car.

If you want something non-obstructive, Southlake Town Square upper floor of the West parking garage. That is a great place, especially after 7PM. Nobody parks up there. Lake Grapevine has a couple spots as well.

Larry: Thanks! That is a great idea.

Alex: I thought I was the only one who knew about that spot. Thanks for the confirmation.

The West parking garage is actually host to a car show every Sunday night from 8pm-12pm. It's rather large (taking up the larger side of the upper floor).

Thanks for the heads-up. I'd hate to drive out there only to find that we can't shoot that location.
